Two optional prompts per day help a class vary setting without changing the art target. Objects are generic and invented or selected from ordinary blank material. A learner can stay with A all fortnight. No example requires personal disclosure, a branded item, a third-party image or culturally specific motifs.

Day Bridge A Bridge B
1 Blank envelope: locate edge/fold before reading “closed.” Smooth stone: separate visible silhouette from imagined weight.
2 Paper cup: top opening versus side wall. Folded blank menu card: front versus low side.
3 Plain cardboard tube: continuous contour versus clustered marks. Unmarked key-shaped cutout made by teacher: sparse versus dense line.
4 Notebook corner: full page versus diagonal crop. Generic leaf: whole outline versus small vein area, without species claim.
5 After G, stacked plain squares: full versus shared edge. After G, bent strip: front opening versus low view.
6 Flat pencil trace versus lifted clean paper strip. Smooth torn edge versus rough torn edge on blank paper.
7 QAGOMA catalogue facts versus institution's interpretation. A new crop from A that does not borrow an artwork's form.
8 Plain cup reduced to rim and support line. Folded card A reduced to diagonal and blank space.
9 Three frames of a rotating paper fold. Select one earlier thumbnail for a process note.
10 After H, stepped paper shown full/edge/silhouette. After H, compare flat versus low-relief emphasis.

Use these as invitations to observe and choose. They are not empirical claims about any real artist, audience, object origin or cultural practice.
